Meta's Customer Feedback Score A rating out of 5 that's assigned to your business. Meta calculates it using feedback surveys sent to a sample of users who tapped your ads and made a purchase. Fall below 2.5 and Meta will slow down your ad delivery. Fall to 2.0 or under and you'll face an automatic CPM penalty. Slip below 1.0 and your ads may stop running altogether.

Where You'll Find Your Feedback Score

You'll spot it in Meta Business Suite, not in Ads Manager. Most advertisers don't know it's there until their delivery tanks.

1. Open Business Suite → Account Quality → Customer Feedback.
2. Select the business or Page you'd like to review.
3. Check your score, see how it's moved over the past 90 days, and look at the main complaint categories Meta highlights.

What Meta's Surveys Actually Ask

• Did the product match what the ad showed? This matters more than anything else.
• Was the shipping time acceptable? Delays or lost parcels will tank your score quickly.
• Did your customer service get back to them? Ignored support queries will damage your score.
• Was the whole thing worthwhile? How customers feel about your brand overall.

Getting Your Score Back Up (If It's Below 2.5)

1. Plug the leak before it spreads. Switch off your worst-performing creative straight away, and anything that promises something your product can't deliver on.
2. Dig into the most common grumbles. Meta breaks it down for you: delivery times, product quality, customer service, ad accuracy, and refunds. Tackle the biggest problem right now.
3. Sharpen your ad messaging. Cut the flowery language, bin the false urgency, and ditch anything you can't prove.
4. Get orders out faster. Cutting delivery time from a fortnight to a week will improve your feedback score within a month or two.
5. Build responsive customer support. Automated reply within an hour, actual person within a full day.
6. Push satisfied customers to leave feedback. Get happy buyers posting on Trustpilot or Google, since Meta watches public feedback scores closely.

Why Your Rating Crumbles Despite Strong Sales

• Sluggish fulfillment when order numbers climb. Ramping up sales volume typically reveals warehouse constraints you didn't spot before. Scores slip thirty to sixty days later.
• Overstated promises in your ads. Claims like „sheds a stone in seven days" or „makes the gym pointless" will demolish your product credibility score.
• Complaints that never get handled. When customers can't get hold of support, they voice it through the review survey instead.
• Pushy add-on selling after checkout. Unexpected charges or hidden subscription sign-ups lead to the worst feedback you'll receive.
• Lots of refund requests. Refund requests count towards your score calculation.

Keeping Your Score Healthy Long Term

• Lock in one rule: all ads must be truthful about the product, its cost, and how long delivery takes.
• Check your delivery commitments every month. Can't meet a seven-day target? State it clearly in the ad and on your landing page.
• Send a quick satisfaction check email on day seven and day thirty after purchase, catching problems before Meta's surveys flag them.
• Answer every customer service query within twenty-four hours, full stop.
• Treat 2.5 as your warning threshold, not 2.0. Getting below 2.5 is a slog to recover from, so avoid it in the first place.

Customer Feedback Score is the metric most advertisers on Meta ignore. Yes, CPMs and CPAs matter, but they're symptoms. The score is the root cause. Check it monthly, treat anything under 2.5 like a genuine crisis, and you'll beat competitors who never bother looking.
